EDITORS COMMENTS
This vintage advertisement for Clarke's Pyramid Night Lights from 1912 is a charming glimpse into the past, showcasing a product designed to provide a soft and even light for nine hours. The image features a whimsical illustration of children tucked in bed, with the warm glow of the night candle casting a gentle light over their chamber.
The design of the pyramid-shaped night light adds an element of elegance to this practical household item, making it not only functional but also aesthetically pleasing. The trade mark logo prominently displayed on the advert serves as a reminder of the brand's long-standing reputation for quality lighting products.
In an era before electricity was widely available, candles were essential for providing illumination after dark. Clarke's Pyramid Night Lights would have been a welcome addition to any home, offering both practical lighting and a sense of comfort and security during nighttime hours.
Mary Evans' print captures the nostalgia and charm of early 20th century advertising, transporting us back to a time when simple pleasures like flickering candlelight could bring warmth and joy to everyday life. This timeless piece serves as a reminder of how even something as mundane as a night light can hold sentimental value and evoke cherished memories from days gone by.
